About Oyster Park Primary Academy

At Oyster Park Primary Academy, children are at the heart of everything we do and so are the people who inspire them. We are looking for passionate, dedicated professionals to join our team and help us create a safe, motivating, and vibrant environment where pupils thrive.

Our ethos is simple: Care, Aspire, Succeed. We value every child for their unique talents, interests, and abilities, and we work hard to unlock their potential. As part of our team, you’ll play a vital role in fostering creativity, resilience, and independence, helping children develop confidence and pride in their achievements.

We believe education goes beyond the classroom. From sport and music to our very own Forest School, we provide rich opportunities for pupils to learn and grow and we need staff who share our commitment to making learning exciting, relevant, and fun.

At Oyster Park, we model the values we teach: good behaviour, respect, tolerance, and teamwork. If you’re ready to make a difference in a school that champions positivity and celebrates success, we’d love to welcome you to our team.
